Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

The Kraken, as Seen by the Eye of Imagination
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print, we are transported into the realm of mythology and folklore. The illustration, taken from John Gibson's "Monsters of the Sea" published in 1887, unveils a mesmerizing depiction of the legendary Kraken. As our eyes delve into the depths of imagination, we witness an awe-inspiring scene unfold. A colossal sea monster emerges from beneath turbulent waves, its immense tentacles reaching towards a hapless ship caught in a raging storm. The lightning illuminates the night sky with an eerie glow, casting dramatic shadows on both creature and vessel alike. Waves crash violently against each other as if engaged in their own battle against this mythical beast. The origins of this fearsome creature can be traced back to Norse mythology and Norwegian folklore. Revered for its size and power, the Kraken has become synonymous with tales of maritime terror throughout Scandinavian lore. Edward Etherington's masterful engraving brings life to this fabulous creature that has captured imaginations for centuries. With meticulous detail and skillful execution, he transports us to a world where reality intertwines with fantasy. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, let our minds wander beyond what is known and embrace the wonders that lie within realms unseen. Let us marvel at how art can bridge gaps between cultures and generations while igniting our own sense of wonderment.
